Wildest Dreams

Make me numb Fill my glass up with rum Many hands have turned Can’t forget what I’ve done Fucking pound the drum Turn the volume right up Let the horsemen come Can’t correct this with words uttered XXX My deeds won’t let me go They’re feasting on my soul They’ve seeped inside this hole Can’t get clean from all this soap The seasons come and go But leaves still clog the flow They’re reaching from below Cut me free or hoist the rope XXX The storm won’t rest And I can’t pay my debt Here in this sea I’m wet And I think such heavy thoughts I keel The river gleams Here in my wildest dreams But I can’t be redeemed My God I’d tell you I’m sorry if you could hear XXX Make it stop Make the blood in me clot Pick apart the knots Let the maggots fall off Still my conscience rots I am haunted by thoughts My tomorrow’s robbed And I’m tangled in thorns stinging XXX I’m feeble, weak and slow And reaping what I sow I’m teaching grief to grow Can’t be healed of settled woe My feelings eat me whole They tease apart my soul Chase peace I’ll never know Can’t be cleared of what I owe XXX The storm won’t rest And I can’t pay my debt And both my feet are wet And I think such heavy thoughts I scream The river gleams Here in my wildest dreams But I can’t be redeemed Oh God I’d tell you I’m sorry if you were here XXX
